Kwiminyaka yakutshanje, imfuno yezisombululo ezisebenzayo nezithembekileyo zokugcina amandla iye yanda, iqhutywa lutshintsho lwehlabathi olusingise kwimithombo yamandla avuselelekayo kunye nemfuno yozinzo lwegridi. Phakathi kwamacandelo ahlukeneyo adlala indima ebalulekileyo kwezi nkqubo, i-aluminiyam ehlala i-resistors iye yavela njengomdlali oyintloko, inikezela ngeenzuzo ezizodwa eziphucula ukusebenza kunye nobude beenkqubo zokugcina amandla.
I-Aluminiyam ehlala i-resistorszaziwa ngokusebenza kwazo kakuhle kwe-thermal, uyilo olukhaphukhaphu, kunye nolwakhiwo oluqinileyo. Ezi mpawu zibenza bafaneleke ngokukodwa kwizicelo kwiinkqubo zokugcina amandla, apho ukulawula ukushisa kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuqina kubaluleke kakhulu. Njengoko iinkqubo zokugcina amandla zihlala zisebenza phantsi kwemithwalo eyahlukeneyo kunye namaqondo obushushu, ukukwazi kwe-aluminium igobolondo resistors ukutshabalalisa ubushushu ngokufanelekileyo kunceda ukugcina ukusebenza kakuhle kunye nokuthintela ukufudumeza.
Enye yezicelo eziphambili zei-aluminiyam ehlala i-resistorskwiinkqubo zokugcina amandla kulawulo lokuvuselela i-braking kwizithuthi zombane (EVs) kunye neenkqubo ezixubileyo. Xa i-EV iyancipha, amandla e-kinetic aguqulwa abuyele kumandla ombane, anokugcinwa kwiibhetri. I-Aluminiyam ehlala i-resistors isetyenziselwa ukulawula le nkqubo yokuguqulwa kwamandla, ukuqinisekisa ukuba inkqubo isebenza ngokufanelekileyo nangokukhuselekileyo.
Ngaphezu koko,I-Aluminiyam ehlala i-resistorsziya zisanda ukuhlanganiswa kwizisombululo zokugcina amandla egridi, ezifana neenkqubo zokugcina amandla ebhetri (BESS) kunye nokugcinwa kwamanzi okumpontshwa. Kwezi zicelo, i-aluminium ehlala i-resistors inceda ukulawula ukuhamba kombane, ukubonelela ngokuzinza kunye nokuthembeka kwigridi. Ukukwazi kwabo ukuphatha amanqanaba aphezulu ombane kunye nokumelana noxinzelelo lwe-thermal kubenza bafaneleke kwezi ndawo zinzima.
